Congratulations!
I have to agree with everyone else, Wolfie is so handsome and I love his unique coloring.
Like someone else already mentioned, his coloring reminds me of a long haired tortoiseshell cat.
I hope you and Wolfie (cute name!) enjoy many happy years together.
Please post as many photos of him as possible, he will have to get used that that camera being in his face because he's so cute!

Thanks everyone, for the nice comments on my new little man. I think he's a real gem, and I'm so thankful that I was the one that got to adopt him. I'm sure it was those 2 RB Fuzzbuttz that planned this one out - it just seemed that they got the ball rolling and told me which direction to go to retrieve it! They did good!!!!!

Wolfy has his first visit with Dr Annie tomorrow morning, so I shall see how well he behaves at the vet. He had his rabies and all his required vaccines at the shelter and checked negative for heartworms. He needs his Lyme vaccine and to get started on the heartworm med, and I think he might have a slight case of seasonal allergies. He's biting and scratching, but not excessively, and I can find no fleas or flea dirt on him, and he sneezes occasionally and when he goes outside his eyes get a little watery. I should find him some sunglasses maybe??? I also want doc to find the location of the microchip so I can keep a check on that site, since there have been issues. If it had been my decision, I probably wouldn't have had him chipped, but it's required for adoption thru the state shelters.

So I'll be back with some tails (I mean tales) tomorrow. Maybe Wolfy will develop the storytelling skill like Myndi and Sparky had, once he's been around for a while and gets some adventures under his belt - or I guess that should be collar!

Well, you are quite the looker Wolfy! I can't believe I almost missed these. Tell your mom to keep you under lock and key, I can be dangerous when I want something Tell her to watch out this Saturday, I'll be over in that area .

About the mixed breed, could he possibly be have papillon in him?? I don't have much experience with Poms but Papillons have bigger ears if I recall and I used to babysit one when his owners went away. Either way, I hope he is working out for you and you two have many happy years!

ETA: Nevermind my stupidity about Papillons but I guess they're say he's a mix because Poms don't normally come in Brindle? He could just be one of those dogs that got the most of one breed...Poms. My guess would be Chi if anything. It does happen that way. After having a mostly "beagle" Puggle, I know.

"I always felt that when someone introduces you to the outdoors, you come to feel like you owe them something. ‘Cause what they really gave you is a lifetime of memories, and a lifestyle you’ll always love. Of course I suppose the best way to pay them back is to be that person for someone else. "

I thought Pap too, with those ears and the hair tufts in them. It really doesn't matter to me tho - he's purebred lovebug! Under breed info for Poms, it does list brindle as one of the colors - I just had never seen one before. Sparky was Shih Tzu/Pom, but he looked 100% Tzu.

You gonna be anywhere in central DE? If you have the time and inclination, perhaps we could meet somewhere.

Whatever he is, he's adorable!

I'm going to be in South Jersey, literally across the bridge from Christiana, DE (I am pretty sure that's the city I'm thinking of), however, I will be busy. I would definitely love to meet if you ever want to! We can try to have a little PT meeting set up for East Coasters (PA, NJ, NY, & DE?) I'm old enough to drive now, so it's much easier to get to those LOL.

What a fantastic story for the first chapter of the saga. I'm with you all the way----I really think your two furfriends saw you were lonely all alone and they decided to get involved and help you find another friend. What a wonderful gift and Wolfie looks gorgeous, love the colours, wait till the sun shines down on him, bet he'll sparkle.

I hope the two of you have a long happy life bringing each other love and fun times. Never will understand how anyone can give up a dog, something I could never do no matter what problem I was facing. Must say this time I think it was meant to be--

Pomtzu and Wolfy, how did the doctor visit go? Does he have the allergy symptoms still? (Can you give an antihistamine to a dog, maybe in a super teeny tiny dose?) Could you please give him a gentle little kiss and hug for me, because he is just so handsome !

I've been Boo'd... right off the stage!

Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

It went fine and I'll start a new thread later today. Yesterday was super busy and some things need to get done this morning before I get rambling on about my new boy.
